Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Just watched Alias. I think on Buffy, I bought why magic was crack more than I buy why Rambaldi is crack. That leadup was better. Still, addict Sloane is having the desired effect on me.

Jesse, I have no sympathy for you wrt skindeepla. It might get my ass fired.

So, today's high was 87. Tomorrow's is expected to be 55. This is making it really hard to plan my week.

What is even happening?

Layers, Emily. Layers. It's the New England way.

What is even happening?

"It turns out replica Civil War guns use real gunpowder, whereas 'Star Trek' phasers have only a battery-powered bulb that lights up," says Lessjo. "You don't go up against a guy with a firearm if all you've got is a flashlight."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Timelies!

Warning - this puzzle may drive you insane:

But speaking of the Video of the Day, today it's a simple animated gif. It takes a few seconds to move, so be patient. While you wait, count the number of figures, there should be 12. After it moves, count them again and there are 13. Where did the extra one come from?

I had to stare at the thing for a long time to figure it out....

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Timelies.

55 in Boston tomorrow? Hmm. Is that what the weather's supposed to be like there for the rest of the weekend?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Nah, not really.

Maybe I shouldn't have tried to solve it at 3 in the morning....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's really interesting, tommyrot.

I have had a computer miracle! As I was going to bed last night, my cat got caught in my computer cords, and pulled the whole shebang off the coffee table. So I went and looked, and my jump drive was all askew sticking out of the USB port. I pulled it out, it was fucked up. So I went to bed, figuring I'd deal with it in the morning. This morning, I just bent the USB part of the drive back into shape, plugged it back in, and all is well! PHEW.
